Natalie Winters is depressed about leaving everything familiar, moving to a small town in New York and starting a new school--until she meets Anali and Chloe and finds they’re as interested in magic as she is. Each girl has an affinity for one of the elements and can draw on natural powers to perform small spells. But soon the friends are plunged into deeper magical waters, facing a djinn that’s not as obedient as the genies in fairytales.

Natalie has no more time to mope as she and her friends forge an uneasy alliance with impetuous Taylor, the girl who summoned the wish-granting entity, and search for a way to defeat it. A brighter distraction from her worries is Luke, the boy-next-locker. His eyes are so blue they melt her insides, but he runs hot and cold and she has no idea where she stands with him.

After discovering her element—earth, Natalie finds layers of strength she never knew she possessed and plumbs the bedrock of her very being. When the young witches band together, can they channel enough power to trap the evil djinn forever?

Arianna Silver grew up wishing she would just once brush up against the paranormal— experience a haunting, catch a glimpse of a U.F.O. or tap into magical powers. Sadly, none of these fantasies ever came true and life was pretty dull—until she realized she could write the magic into existence. She hopes readers enjoy her stories of average girls who have to juggle classes, homework, family and boyfriend issues as well as having exciting paranormal adventures.
